Suge Knight will be bailed out of jail by Floyd Mayweather, according to Knight’s lawyer, Matt Fletcher.
“My understanding is that Suge’s going to be bailed out this coming week,” Fletcher says during an interview with the New York Daily News. “We think Mr. Mayweather is going to win the championship and then come champion the day again. They’re good friends and there’s no reason he shouldn’t and we believe that will happen.”
Mayweather is slated to fight Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas Saturday (May 2).
Knight was charged with murder and attempted murder after being arrested January 30 on murder charges regarding his alleged involvement in a deadly hit-and-run outside of Tam’s Burgers near the 1200 block of West Rosecrans Avenue in Los Angeles.
Knight reportedly allegedly injured two of the men he allegedly hit with his truck and killed a third, Terry Carter.
Knight’s bail had been set at $25 million, but has been reduced to $10 million.
Suge Knight’s murder trail has been set for July 7 by Los Angeles Superior Court judge Ronald Coen, according to a report today.

UPDATE: Suge Knight will not be bailed out of jail by Floyd Mayweather, TMZ says.
A member of Mayweather’s camp denied the claim made by Matthew Fletcher, Knight’s attorney, that Mayweather would be bailing Knight out of jail after his match tomorrow (May 2).
Mayweather’s associate also told TMZ that the boxer and Knight have not been in contact for years.
Fletcher told TMZ he made the comment based on what Knight’s family had told him.
I don’t give a fuck how good of friends I am with someone. If they kill someone out of their own stupidity, I’m not giving them 10mil for bail.
You never pay the full bail, it’s 10%
-Eh…
If you put the full $10mil up yourself, you get it all back.
If you put the 10% up, the bail bondsman that put the other 90% up get your 10%.
it’s sad that ppl make up all these stories and turn real life into entertainment. ain’t nobody tryna bail out suge tho
Fuck that shit.
Suge knight might be the most evil spirited person in this country. Why TF would you blow 10 mil to get him out of jail??

Sorry gangsta. Fo sizzle.
Please learn how to spell. You are a disgrace to the English language. ” winnin ina d ring coz” winning in the ring because..not that hard to type really is it!? and when most people have predictive text, i cant help but wonder about a lost generation!!!
First thing first Floyd got to focus on the fight at hand.
Shit crazy for suge but I seen the footage no comment just let god handle it
After all of the money he earned over the years yet can’t come up with bail that should be chump change to him? Either way he’ll walk….won’t be cheap, but slap-on-the-wrist is my prediction.
I hope Pacquiao knockout Floyd I believe Pac Man will throw & land far more punches. Planning on bailing Suge out brings on problems! That stuff Suge has put himself in comes with some form of retaliation now Mayweather will inherit some of that he better get some vest for that fat security team. Bad decision!
well your hopes didn’t come. LMAO
